Event Ten.





Little Willie, mean as hell,
Pushed his sister in a well.
Mother said, while drawing water,
"My, it's hard to raise a daughter."





t's pretty dark and miserable down in the well. The cavernous area feels much larger than a well should be, bodies milling about in the darkness and knee deep, frigid water. So you're here -- and you're not alone, and the only way out appears to be the thin circle of sunlight from above, the opening of the well.

(And elsewhere, in the Town, everyone's waking up to gifts of various usefulness, but hopefully they remember to check the well today even so!)

What now?




Welcome to Awash's tenth event log, and the intro log for this month, everyone! All new characters have found themselves waking in the well in the middle of the Town. Hopefully they can get a hand out! For more information, please go here!

Meanwhile, the current characters have some new gifts.

If there are any questions, please ask them here, and have fun! Thank you!

[ Well, she didn't even think about checking the well for that possibility, that's for sure. ] So someone tried doing that and it didn't work, then? There's no other place to check? [ She asks, approaching Zelda as her case wheels behind her. ]

And you got kidnapped, too.. [ Uh, duh, Lottie. She cringes ever so slightly before continuing. ] How long have you been stuck here?

[ oh poor woman. she keeps thinking this over and over because lottie must be one of the few people she's met that is so genuinely frazzled and upset about what's happening. she may not be from a world where the things she's seeing are commonplace. ]

It's four months now. [ so not an insignificant amount of time. ] I was in the second group to arrive here. Those from the first group have been here for six months.

[ It certainly isn't commonplace for her - maybe this kind of thing would be in the Cursed Convention Halls of Comic-Con, but not her increasingly average day to day life. ]

Four months? [ Is that how long she's going to be here?? She has a life to get back to, social media to maintain! ] And the first group for over half a year?! How many of you guys are there?

Hard to say. The population fluctuates.

[ like right now. a lot more newcomers are here this time around than the last. but... she thinks it may be better to not overwhelm this woman with much more information. she's clearly distressed. ]

Do you know where your assigned house is? You should have came in with a paper giving you directions. I can take you there and... help you unpack.

[ that large case she's wheeling around must have a lot of important things to put away. ]

[ Lottie opts to stay quiet, her look of distress that Zelda notices still ever so present. She doesn't know what she'd even do if she had more information - it's not like she knows how to do anything particularly special, or useful.. especially for something like this. ]

Yeah, I found it in my case a while ago.. It started with an "f" I think?

[ At least for the district.. She moves to get the paper out of the waistband of her skirt, abandoning her case for a moment to unfold the note in its entirety. ]

But if you could that'd be great. I got tons of things to figure out if I'm gonna be here for a while like you..

Flavo then. [ good, that gives them a place to start. less people live in that area of the town. ] It'll be my pleasure to help. The first day is never the easiest.

[ some people take it better than others, but zelda presumes those people must have had a lot to deal with at home if they can acclimate so quickly. someone like lottie feels... different, from most of the others she's seen. completely out of her element. she could use more help for that reason alone. ]

I can lead the way and we can get you set-up. Don't worry about taking it easy.

[ Oh thank god. She was going to say Flava with all her chest until she thought better of it. Talk about potential embarrassment..

Lottie tucks the paper back quickly. ]
..Was yours just as bad? [ Her first day, she means. With how composed she is, Lottie is half inclined to believe she took it far better than she currently is. ]

Thank you, though, I really appreciate your help, right now. [ She doesn't think she can really properly express that bit, since Lottie's ability to show her emotions are a 2 on a scale of 10. So Lottie will edge closer to Zelda, instead, flashing her something close to a smile. ] After we get to my.. house, or whatever, I promise I won't bug you anymore than I already am.

Mhm. It was... challenging. For different reasons.

[ mainly that she spent so long away from the world she used to live in, and then she came here just as she was preparing to return. there are a lot of people who don't know she's alive... the terrible feeling of that has subsided, but it's easy to remember.

but anyway:
]

You don't have to worry about bugging me. [ "bugging" said like it's a new term for her, which it is. a lot of human phrases are. ] You can follow me. Once we get to Flavo, you should feel a force drawing you to which home you belong with. ...You'll see what I mean.

[ She thinks she can relate to that for obvious reasons, giving a slight nod at her response. The Lottie of right now considers today to be the absolute worst - only because today just happened to follow the most unwelcome and wild weekend of her life. ]

Okay.. [ A force pulling her? What, like what happens she when she passes by Sephora? Lottie doesn't really question anything more than that from that topic, although the confusion is still evident on her face. ] ..If you say so.

[ She knows more than Lottie, so even if she doesn't understand the reasoning she should just try and get pulled anyway. However that works. ]

Wait, so I don't even get to pick my own place?

[ yes lottie, it's just like sephora. ]

Not initially, but you're always free to move somewhere else. [ she smiles a little, glad to give some good news in this. it's the little things! ] The good news of this town is that, for all the ups and downs, we are relatively free to live in peace. As long as you aren't doing anything criminal of course.

[ honestly, people here seem to be more on the law-abiding side than not. lucky for a town of so many different types of people, from different walks of life. ]

[ Lottie pauses at the information - why bother assigning houses then if you can just leave?? Why kidnap people and force them to live somewhere but be totally lenient in following through???

Well.. Lottie will have to see if the place she lives in is pretty enough to endure for now. Otherwise, she will definitely move someplace secluded. Quiet. Where she can hate people on the internet in peace. So far, it doesn't look terrible.. definitely nothing like her apartment though. ]


So there's police here?

[personal profile] withwisdom 2018-09-22 12:38 am (UTC)(link)
Not 'police' - we hold each other accountable. The closest similarity is a defense force that patrols town to watch for any attacks from outside.

[ she's heard some people use that phrase, and even if she doesn't recognize it personally, it's clearly in the context of a professional town watch ]

[ Even if she's not familiar with the phrase, Lottie still understands it enough to know what she means. And while it sounds pretty medieval, she doesn't have any say in it because it's not like she's going to do anything about it herself. ]

Right. No police. And that seriously works? Like, nothing bad has happened since you guys came here?

[ the newcomers all seem to have interesting questions about their governance this time around! it's fair, but it does make her laugh a little awkwardly. ]

Well, not between us to my best knowledge. The danger is more out in the woods, and when it comes to the town to hurt us.
